A financial-district ZIP, higher dollars per line
$17,950,023 divided by 27,455 is about $654 per itemized line. 02109 is State Street and the Custom House more than a residential neighborhood. That does not make every row a PAC. It does make workplace addresses more likely than in a Newton household ZIP. The packet still has only two facts. It has no unique-donor count.
Twenty-seven thousand four hundred fifty-five contributions is a shorter list than many $18 million ZIPs. Repeat itemizations, law-firm and fund addresses, and redesignations can add rows. Quote 27,455 as a line count, not as a census of downtown residents.
LobbyVault does not attach a Boston political identity to $17,950,023. The source is FEC.gov receipts tagged 02109.
Financial District filers often list the office. $17,950,023 across 27,455 contributions still has to be quoted as a ZIP roll-up, not as a fund-manager census. Keep the leading zero. Keep 27,455 as a line count. This packet has no unique-donor count. The $654 mean is a ratio. Recheck the ZIP 02109 FEC page after quarterly filings. 02110 is a different key. FEC.gov controls.
Keep the leading zero on Massachusetts ZIPs
02109 is a five-digit code. Spreadsheets that store 2109 will fail to match FEC itemizations. A filer who lists a workplace, a filer who lists a downtown condo, and a joint fundraising committee that uses a 02109 suite all land in the same bucket. $17,950,023 is that bucket. It is not a resident-only book.
Open named receipts on the ZIP 02109 FEC page if you need to see which committees appear. This guide will not invent a split inside 27,455 lines.

Questions
- How much federal campaign money is tied to ZIP 02109?
- FEC.gov itemized receipts listing contributor ZIP 02109 total $17,950,023 across 27,455 contributions in the LobbyVault aggregate. That figure is a ZIP roll-up of federal Schedule A rows, not a unique-donor count and not a census of downtown Boston residents. Unitemized gifts sit outside it. The mean of about $654 is arithmetic from those two packet facts.
- How many FEC contributions are tagged to ZIP 02109?
- LobbyVault counts 27,455 itemized contributions for ZIP 02109. That is a line count, not a headcount of unique people. Workplace-address batches and repeat gifts can add rows without adding new donors. This packet does not publish a unique-donor figure. The matching dollar total on the same extract is $17,950,023.
- Does ZIP 02109 include only Boston residents?
- No. The ZIP is the five-digit contributor code on the FEC itemization. Financial District offices and committees that file 02109 can be part of $17,950,023 when that is what was entered. Keep the leading zero when matching files. LobbyVault does not recode the field into a residential-only book. Open named receipts on the ZIP hub to see which committees appear.
- Where does LobbyVault get ZIP 02109 totals?
- The numbers come from FEC.gov itemized contribution aggregates indexed on LobbyVault: $17,950,023 and 27,455 lines for ZIP 02109. Original reports remain on FEC.gov. Unitemized federal gifts and Massachusetts state filings are outside both figures. If a later extract disagrees with this snapshot, the Commission’s filing controls.
ZIP is the 5-digit contributor ZIP on FEC itemizations. Totals can include joint fundraising and PAC addresses, not only residents.
